Re: Petey!!!!!!!!!!!!

Petey is my favorite player. I have had a ton of respect for him ever since the Drake game, and most people hated him after that game

I thought he was VERY good against Drake. Too bad he couldn't get that 3 pointer to go late or he would really be a hero on here.

I enjoy watching him more this season when he's not having to run the point all game. To me, he's not a good PG at all but plays well as an off guard. DG being able to handle the point has helped Petey a lot IMO.

Re: Petey!!!!!!!!!!!!

This sort of thing has happened a lot at ISU recently, where a player who is a natural two gets shoved to the point where he flounders.

Lee Love was a horrible point guard, and somewhat thrived (uhm... sorta) at the two spot once Michael Nurse got here.

And speaking of Michael Nurse, he was only marginally better, and then exploded when Tinsley got here.

Jake Sullivan played the two while Tinsley was here, then got shoved into the point position (I still resent your face Zach Fortune) where he only looked good when you compared him to Paris Corner. He began to thrive again once Tim Barns got here.

I'm happy Petey's gotten a chance to slip to a spot that suits him better.

It happens at a lot of schools. It shows really how difficult it is to find a natural point guard, and what happens to a team when you need to have somebody fill in at that crucial position.
